Projects Developed at the DSPLabs

Research and development activities are considered
as most important for the team at DSPLabs. Over the years, the number of
research and application projects successfully developed in the lab is
constantly increasing.

Special attention is also focused on the doctoral, master's and diploma
research and development activities. Currently, DSPLabs offers all the
necessary support to four doctoral programs and several master's and
diploma projects.

Project objectives:
Develpment of an authonomously mini-robot, based on a Motorola DSP568xx EVM platform.
The robot is able to move around on a horizontal
floor, populated with unknown obstacles. Using a custom-built SONAR system, the
robot can detect and avoid obstacles on its route. The destination point can be interactively
programmed into the robot with an infra-red (IR) remote control.
The project has been sponsored by Motorola, Incorporated, through grants "DALT-
1.3/2000" and "DALT-2.2/2001".
